Chocolate is very fragile and the summer heat can turn a beautiful chocolate into a gooey mess. A high quality chocolate will turn liquid at about 84 degrees, the only way to make it tolerate the heat better would be to add ingredients that would negatively impact the taste mouth feel of our products &#8211; we don&#8217;t do that. So we&#8217;ll only be shipping via overnight or 2nd day and your cost will include special packaging to make sure that your order arrives in excellent condition.</p>


	<p>If you&#8217;re looking for a treat that will hold up to the heat, try fudge! Fudge will get a bit softer when it&#8217;s warm but it will not melt. If you stop by our store on a hot day we have frozen bananas, cheesecake slices and ice cream &#8211; hand dipped in our quality chocolate while you watch. This is not some hard shell coating from a jar, we make it from the same chocolate we use to make the fine items your enjoy in our store everyday.</p>]]></summary><updated>2009-05-07T22:24:30-05:00</updated><published>2009-05-07T22:24:30-05:00</published><author><name>Nick Xidis</name></author><link href='http://www.hazelhillchocolate.com/blogs/news/1092162-shipping-chocolates-in-the-summer' rel='alternate'/></entry><entry><id>tag:db1@shopify.com,2009:articles/1030132</id><title>Hazel Hill in Kelli&apos;s Cameo</title><summary type='html'><![CDATA[<p>Take a look at the video that appeared on <a href="http://ksnt.com/">KSNT</a> It&#8217;s in a segment called Kelli&#8217;s Cameo with <a href="http://www.ksnt.com/content/about/story/Kelli-Stegeman/qi8m5fSr7EypvsNAcGowHA.cspx">Kelli Stegeman</a>.

Every year we thank our customers by giving away a free piece of our delicious fudge to every customer who makes any purchase. This is our way of thanking the people and city that have supported us.</p>


	<p>Our goal this year was to give away 150lbs of fudge. I&#8217;m happy to report that we gave away more than 200lbs! The shop was crowded all day and we did our best to server everybody &#8211; we appreciate your patience.</p>

It was great to see so many people getting Hazel Hill chocolates for their loved ones. By far the most popular item was chocolate covered strawberries. We made hundreds of pounds over the last couple of days. As you know, they only last one day so our staff has been starting as early as 2:00am the last few days to get them ready. We&#8217;re thrilled with how many people enjoy them.</p>


	<p>One of the side effects of all the folks coming to visit us is that the lines can be a bit long. We&#8217;re sorry for the wait and if we missed your phone call. You might be interested to know that we served a customer very 90 seconds over the last two days. As you can image, our staff has to really hustle to keep up that pace. We really appreciate the patience show by our customers as we tried to help everyone.</p>


	<p>Thanks to everyone who visited Hazel Hill for Valentines Day.</p>
